Because the M6 runs the 1/4 a second slower and with lower trap speed. The awd wouldn't make up that difference. Imo would have been more believable if the m6 would have pulled alittle ahead but to gap the gtr by multiple car lengths says to me probably a mistake by the gtr.

Why is it hard to believe if they're both bone stock on pump gas, OEM tuning?

This is the problem with youtube videos. Apparantly this video is misinforming. The GTR owner posted in the comments about 2 other videos that weren't posted as well as the M6 having filters and something else done. Do I think that they are both fast. Yes. However, at the same time this video is to be taken with a grain of salt like with the F10 M5 videos M5board.com was posting.

i get so angry when these you tube vids show things that just cant happen, i mean if this was a case where someone gets a hit, or someone spins bad, or someone gets caught sleeping at the light we all know a slower car can win, but this is not the case here, it looks like the m6 is the faster trapping car by 10mph!! oh and its not like you can out shift the gtr. IT MUST BE FAKE OR DRIVER ERROR. OR modded/damaged car

The obvious answer is that the BMW covert marketing division has put out the first of several videos showing the new M cars' sweet street performance. As we all know well, the M5 and M6's target demographics are the "highway pull" and "dig from a stoplight" crowd that regularly sweeps youtube for the latest and greatest in underground racing videos. The only way that BMW will turn a profit on these new M-cars is to win this market from the get go. If even one video shows an S63 car losing, their sales will be a bust and BMW will be forced to discontinue all cars except the base model 3 series. In summary, BMW is going to blanket youtube with videos of high performance cars losing to F1x M series cars to boost sales.

There is no possible way that undisclosed modifications, driver mods, or intentional dishonesty have anything to do with the absurd number of car lengths (sorry, bus lengths) that the M6 put on a newer GTR.

I don't think he posted in the thread about sunglasses, but I thought it was funny that he pulled out the old Bluetooth and sunglasses stereotype on the BMW guys when their board has their own thread about it.

I want to see a vid of you taking his GT-R down with your 'busa when it's done.
